I. Introduction
Today, quality is considered as one of the
most important branches of global competitiveness and
TQM as a way to maintain a competitive edge in this
age will be considered [1-3].
Total Quality Management is aimed at enterprises and
organizations, from the beginning of production
applications and services so that they are done properly
then errors need to be corrected.
In most education systems in the world of quality
management as a key strategy to overcome challenges
such as resource utilization, rising costs, inefficient
administrative bureaucracy, lack of educational
standards, Curriculum heterogeneous, low
effectiveness and efficiency of the education system is
named. Quality management is a philosophy of
continuous improvement, which enables a set of tools
and techniques to meet the needs, demands and
expectations of current and future provide each
institution. A.O khravi (1381), quoting, International
Network for Quality Assurance in Higher Education
Institutions (1993), quality is defined as: 1 - Quality of
Higher Education in accordance with the standard
preset 2 - to adapt the quality of higher education with
a mission, goals and expectations Fellowship training
[4-7]. University and higher education institutions to
their customers that their products are, in fact, provide
the best service. Leaving behind the second
millennium and into the third millennium is
heterogeneous for the function and role of the
university changed its pace with the rapidly changing
environments Compatible storm formation, As a result
of the assumptions and factors that are useful in an
effective way. Quality management system that will
improve the organization and establishment of quality
management system to increase efficiency and
effectiveness in education and research is and finally,
the productivity will follow. Koryshi and colleagues
(2010) in an article titled “Faculty Satisfaction in
Higher Education’ Pakistan seeks to examine the
satisfaction level of faculty in higher education, and
TQM as a strategy for human resources planning and
management at the University recommended
In contrast, in an article titled ‘Total Quality
Management in Higher Education: A Critical
Perspective system in preparation for the” stated that
the language, Apparently TQM concepts and tools
seem attractive, but you get the scrutiny they are not
suitable for combination with higher education [8].
The main results can be expected from the
implementation of TQM at the following centers,
1- A balance between education and community needs.
2- All staff involved in educational reform.
3- Increase student satisfaction.
4- Continuous improvement of educational processes
and their compliance with the standards. 5- 5-5-
Increased creativity and innovation.
6- Reduce the cost of poor quality of service.
7- Saving resources and improving working
relationships.
8- Increase the capacity of faculty and staff.
Creation of income-generating activities and
ultimately improve productivity.
Bazargan (quoting Babayi. 1382) in research as
academic self-assessment and its application to
continuously improve the quality of higher education’
has shown that the university should have clear
objectives and to accomplish these objectives should
be taken advantage of favorable academic management
functions are enabled. The results of this study suggest
RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS

that improving the quality of service that will be
available when:
1-Academic unit goals are clearly expressed.
2-Academic unit to meet the needs of students and
faculty members to be organized.
3-Evaluation report should be considered on the basis
of the proposed action is to amend aspects.
4-Academic department officials appear weaknesses,
failures and shortcomings inflict soldiers.
5-The authorities have not tried to hide their disability.
6-Education-research, providing specialized services
for students and improve the quality and capabilities of
scientific administration, curriculum, learning
resources, library and based on the assessment report
will improve.
The quality of leadership in the design and
deployment of the size of the orbit of any element of
the strategy is to continually improve. So that the focus
can change and innovation, creativity, foresight,
influence and motivate and lead staff to properly
manage the important features today. Collaborative
management of symbols that are consistent with
changes in the environment and are looking for quality
management models.
According to Lamei (1382) managers can provide the
basis for continuous improvement role to play.
Karazebi says he quoted senior executives in relation
to quality and continuity problems they are one
hundred percent responsible and the first thing that
should happen is that they share the same
understanding of the quality of the intellectual leaders,
They must create an environment where it is possible
to upgrade and change. Upgrade must be led.
Upgraded system is in need of change, leadership is
needed to break the systems of internal resistance to
change and to create interest. Leaders must be
committed to providing resources, long-term plan to
improve staff training and empowering them to show
the quality improvement movement is from top to
bottom. One of the important factors for organizations
committed to improving the appearance of the failure
by concentrating Q on the lower levels (staff) were
protanopia. One of the reasons for the failure to
implement Total Quality Management in the Non-
Aligned leaders and organizations and Not have a clear
understanding of its philosophy.
Management measures such as maintaining a sense of
urgency to support the desired changes- Create a clear
vision of the desired outcomes- Remove rewards that
reinforce the desired behavior is contrary to the
behavior-What people have to consider the presented
examples and show a message- They all want to do
something that is considered- Reinforce desired
behaviors through recognition and reward people who
are doing it- Expected of opposition to crumble and
helping to improve it- Encouraged people to risks and
efforts to control them- Reward offered to successful
individuals trained in how to fix mistakes- Ongoing
commitment to the success of the task desired
expressing- The agency is supporting the
implementation of TQM.
Hamidi(1 385) in an article titled Effective Study
Skills and transformational effectiveness of Quality
Management at the University of medical sciences, the
necessary changes And transformation of traditional
forms of organizational culture based on participation,
teamwork and creativity development noted. And
concluded that the most important factor in successful
organizational leadership at the University is
constantly improving. Thus the universities in the
management and control of qualityo riented and less
leadership is needed.
Jahangiri (quoting Safarani. et al, 1388) in a study
titled “Knowledge and utilization of the principles and
practices of TQM (TQM) by managers and social
workers’ knowledge and attitude of top and middle
managers working in the principles of Total Quality
Management has an important role.
Implementation of total quality management should be
done gradually and in stages, since the decision to fully
integrate it into the daily work of staff takes years. Any
way to shorten this time span, there is no shortcut for
implementing various executive management models
have been developed, but there is no Management, 45
managers of Mashhad implemented and validated
questionnaire PNU 0.873 = a calculated. Data for the
Model T was used for each sample.
II. Methods
Because the study preparing for the
implementation of total quality management and
measurement of variables is considered an 8-fold. This
kind of’ univariate and the other side of the
relationship of these variables are determined by the
individual characteristics of managers, This kind of
‘solidarity’ is. The population of this study consists of
managers working in PNU chairman of Mashhad, And
deputy directors of departments that were
approximately 50 people. Using a sample size of 44
patients was considered Morgan. The methods
available to administrators of the questionnaires were
and 45 The number of completed questionnaires at the
end of every favorable conditions were included. The
research instrument was a researcher-made substance
that has been extracted from the literature and research
experts had been approved, This questionnaire
consisted of two main sections: Section I General
specifications of the respondents included Age, Service
experience, and education courses. The second part of
Article 5 of the 2lLikert-based option with a lot of
options, high, medium, low and very low, respectively,
the corresponding numbers are 5 to 1. The
questionnaire prepared for the implementation of total
quality management in the absolute sense (Ftot), and
so on for eight variables:
Applying the philosophy of total quality management

Quality Management(f2), Coordinated efforts of the
management team(f3), Participation in quality
improvement efforts(f4), Time to spread the

philosophy of Total Quality Management(f5), Clear

Measurement is rewarding and appreciated. (f8)
Average score of participants in each part of the test
options by part testing is the subject of this Score
between 1 and 5 subjects in each part of the test. The
third section of the questionnaire by both open-ended
question asked respondents their views on the barriers
to total quality management in universities have
expressed and His proposed solution and its
implementation are provided. Questionnaire to assess
the diagnostic validity (convergent - divergent) of
factor analysis was performed using the correlation
matrix coefficients, Correlation coefficients vary
significantly and generally high level of .001, which
indicates that the variables are related to the scope of
the underlying share, the validity of the convergent
validity,’ they say. F3 variables significant at the 0.001
insignificance of the variables has a penchant for total
quality management and divergent validity. In order to
estimate the reliability of Cronbachs alpha coefficient
was used. Thus, Article 21 of the questionnaire
prepared for the implementation of Total Quality

IV. Discussion and conclusions
Results indicated a willingness to implement
total quality management as PNU Mashhad Kelly
moderate signs of readiness for the coordinated efforts
of the management team’s efforts to promote practical
cooperation, taking time to spread the philosophy of
Total Quality Management, Money Vnnan and Prmyla
(2009) in research as (applying management principles
encompassing tqm in teacher training centers) suggests
that those quality indicators that we are strong and
those that are weakest should be strengthened
institutions with the standards of quality assessment by
accredited national and international organizations
provided they are consistent.
In this regard, it is necessary to establish management
measures to prepare for the implementation of TQM
througK short-term and long-term planning, cultural
infrastructure and adequate infrastructure, training and
human resource development, allocation of resources
and .. Is.
Sytalakshmy and Van Katrmn (2007) research as a
framework for implementing TQM in higher education
programs that philosophy of TOM must for successful
application in higher education appropriately be
changed and the need for a framework for the
systematic, practical and economical to enhance the
quality of higher education is affordable and Dunn
(2007) research on the topic) Total Quality
Management in higher Education: critical perspectives
in preparation for the target system (which is expressed
in the language, concepts and tools apparently TQM
seem attractive, but you can get a close look to the
combination of higher learning are good
contrast, some studies suggest that the benefits of
TQM in higher education, including Kvrayshy and
colleagues (2010) in Research a) faculty satisfaction in
higher Education (to evaluate the satisfaction level of
faculty members in higher education in Pakistan and
tqm as a strategy for human resource planning and
management in universities is recommended. Roland
Zvtan Brsyz and spelling (quoting et al 1381) in a
study entitled tqm and organizational development at
the University of Budapest, Faculty of economics and
Technology management conducted. showed that no
new and valuable alternative methods of TQM and the
management is not there. The findings of this study No
significant correlation was found between the
variables.
In this Perusal, It is wanted from moderators to present
their Proposals for good establishment of TQM.
The most important Proposals is
- Provincial, regional and national committees to
promote
- creation of public education program at the

University
- comprehensive support and promotion of the
activities of public management
- The annual preparing the report of activities to
promote
Best model performance. There are several differences
between the Western Administrative Templates cannot
be taken literally.
Lamei (1382) for the implementation of total quality
management in a six-stage model provides an
executable model of the first stage of readiness to
change (knowledge) that has symptoms such as
allocation of resources, Honors and awards, publishing
philosophy TQM time to participate in efforts to
promote a brighter future plans, Coordinated efforts of
the management team and recruiting TQM philosophy
in word and deed administrators. (9)
Lamei The present through eight signs of readiness to
implement the concept of landscape managers TQM
the highest responsibility in this regard are discussed
and then The relationship of this preparedness will
